Netanyahu Wants To Scuttle The Iran Deal, Thinks Trump Can Help
60 MINUTES Leslie Stahl (skip)
He’s says he’s going to see Mr. Trump soon to lobby him to scuttle the deal. The president-elect has called the agreement “stupid” and “a disgrace.” But Trump’s choice for defense secretary, General James Mattis, has advised against pulling out.
Lesley Stahl: If it were to be abrogated wouldn’t that put you in a more precarious position than you are now? Because they would obviously then rush to the bomb.
Benjamin Netanyahu: I think Iran didn’t rush to the bomb before there was a deal.
Lesley Stahl: Really?
Benjamin Netanyahu: No, because they were afraid of retribution.
Lesley Stahl: But if-- OK, you get rid of the deal. Then what?
Benjamin Netanyahu: I think what options we have are much more than you think. Many more. And I’ll talk about it –
Lesley Stahl: Like what?
Benjamin Netanyahu: --with President Trump. Well, I think quite a few, actually.
Lesley Stahl: Because if you, you know, put sanctions back on, the other signatories to the deal won’t.
Benjamin Netanyahu: There are ways, various ways of undoing it.
Lesley Stahl: You have something in your mind.
Benjamin Netanyahu: Yeah, I have about five things in my mind.
Lesley Stahl: Well, give me one.

that’s why I put “Palestine” in quotes. The point of the meme is to spread, so people have no doubt about whats in it.
*I agree with that, but man has opportunities to better his own position at times. We can’t sit around waiting for God to do it all for us.
We have been a creative giant. We were blessed with that in some ways by God (IMO), so that we could make the world a better place.
In times of old, he blessed kings for this very reason.*
“... in some ways by God (IMO)...
Blessed in ALL ways by God, which is more fact than opinion.
Go, Trump/Pence, GO!
MAGA!
I might actually watch 60 minutes.
It wasn’t a deal. By their very nature, deals bring some benefit to both sides.
This was a surrender combined with a bribe. A surrender to the Iranians, and a bribe to them to so Obama could claim a supposed foreign policy victory.
Nah, every other conflict origin neutered by superior airpower.
Everything we do is out of love for our children.
Like Trump, Bibi won't give away strategic/tactical info because some "reporter" asks.
I wonder how many billions of dollars the U.S. spent fighting the Iran-funded terrorism of Worldwide Islamic Supremacy over the last 40 or so years? We didn't owe Iran a freaking thing.
The Iran deal gave aid and comfort to an avowed enemy of the U.S., the very definition of treason in the Constitution (Art III, Sec 3, Cl 1). The deal is illegal, unenforceable, and should be repudiated.
You don’t deter nuclear power with air power once it’s sitting in a silo.
Better to stop the program.
I have faith in Trump, Bibi and Mattis. They’ll work something out.
Thanks for the vid link. Great...
